On one hand I think it's a brilliant idea, specifically for this property which holds a lot of properties itself, on the other hand, I wonder if it's part of any standard. Is IE9 the only browser who did add a toJSON to window.performance? If no, are all implementations consistent with one another? Regardless, is it part of any standard? If not, could either Microsoft push it to discussions to standard or drop it? History has taught us that web technlogies are implementation and content-driven [1]. If one browser with relevant market share implemented something and people start using it, then the web relies on it and what was implemented needs to be standardized as is. I heard IE is suffering from this issue with __proto__. I really think it's a brilliant idea. I just wish it was discussed in standards mailing-lists first :-) David [1] http://longtermlaziness.wordpress.com/2012/03/14/web-technologies-are-implementation-and-content-driven/
